Jaded (Live at the Electric Factory, Philadelphia 11/14/97) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Somebody keep my balance, I think I'm falling off
Into a state of regression
The expiration date rapidly coming up
It's leaving me behind to rank
[Chorus]
Always move forward
Going straight won't get you nowhere
There is no progress, evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhere
[Verse 2]
I'm taking one step sideways, leading with my crutch
Got a fucked up equilibrium
Count down from nine to five, hooray, we're gonna die
Blessed into our distinction
[Chorus]
Always move forward
Going straight won't get you nowhere
There is no progrеss, evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhеre
[Instrumental Break]
Somebody keep my balance, I think I'm falling off
Into a state of regression
The expiration date rapidly coming up
It's leaving me behind to rank
[Chorus]
Always move forward
Going straight won't get you nowhere
There is no progress, evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhere
[Verse 2]
I'm taking one step sideways, leading with my crutch
Got a fucked up equilibrium
Count down from nine to five, hooray, we're gonna die
Blessed into our distinction
[Chorus]
Always move forward
Going straight won't get you nowhere
There is no progrеss, evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhеre
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Always move forward
Going straight won't get you nowhere
There is no progress, evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhere
[Post-Chorus]
In nowhere, in nowhere
[Interlude]
Where do you put this thing at?
I'll put it on my microphone stand
Alright, we got super ball here (What's that?)
Well, I didn't— one thing I— I forgot to tell you about
Is that we're recording a live record here right now
We're— yep, we're doin' it
All paid up now
It's— It's gonna be called Fucked Up in Philadelphia
The Philly Fuck-Ups
A Bunch of Crazy Bastards From Here
Anyways, this song was once done by a band called Operation Ivy
Always move forward
Going straight won't get you nowhere
There is no progress, evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhere
[Post-Chorus]
In nowhere, in nowhere
[Interlude]
Where do you put this thing at?
I'll put it on my microphone stand
Alright, we got super ball here (What's that?)
Well, I didn't— one thing I— I forgot to tell you about
Is that we're recording a live record here right now
We're— yep, we're doin' it
All paid up now

About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
A really fast-paced song which is directly connected to the previous song in the album — “Brain Stew” — to the point the single / music video / live performances have both together.
This is because “Bain Stew” is writen about crashing back to reality / the “come down” after being high on methamphetamine — whereas “Jaded” is about redosing methamphetamine so that the euphoria, stimuluation, racing thoughts, anxiety, and wakefulness come back.
